Everything ok. I had to edit bios and disable SATA. Then I got only one port who was in NVME mode. Flashed SSD firmware and reflashed original bios. Will never buy Samsung or Asus products again. They are joking to the face of customers. Thanx for help again.

The first SATA Mode Selection entry : 374DF : One Of Option: AHCI, Value (8 bit): 0x0 (default) {09 07 57 0C 30 00 00} The second SATA Mode Selection entry : 0x49ABA : One Of Option: RAID, Value (8 bit): 0x1 (default) {09 07 58 0C 30 00 01} I will edit the PE32 image in HEX and change 58 to 57. Will see if it work. Should force AHCI only.

Thanx Klem exactly the 2 entries who need to be modified in Setup : "SATA Mode Selection" (I updated bios dump version in main post) Look those pictures I think is where the main matter is. In G703GX bios Setup you can select RAID or AHCI there, but not in G703VI Setup :

Hi Klem Yes I tried to set User on all tree but the menu option choice AHCI is missing as you can see with the Setup extraction. Need someone who can add the code they used in the G703GX and it should work. Modify the line (0x49AF1) from RAID to AHCI will be fine for me. I don't plan to use Raid 0 anymore. There is a second "SATA Configuration" in the extracted Setup at the address : 0x49866 Cheers.

I found something very interesting. I took the firmware of the G703GX and extracted Setup : G703VI : 0x49AD2 Form: SATA Configuration, FormId: 0x286E {01 86 6E 28 42 18} 0x49AD8 Gray Out If {19 82} 0x49ADA QuestionId: 0xC38 equals value 0x1 {12 06 38 0C 01 00} 0x49AE0 One Of: SATA Mode Selection, VarStoreInfo (VarOffset/VarName): 0x926, VarStore: 0x1, QuestionId: 0xC05, Size: 1, Min: 0x1, Max 0x1, Step: 0x0 {05 91 55 0C 56 0C 05 0C 01 00 26 09 10 10 01 01 00} 0x49AF1 One Of Option: RAID, Value (8 bit): 0x1 (default) {09 07 58 0C 30 00 01} 0x49AF8 End One Of {29 02} G703GX : 0x536D4 Form: SATA Configuration, FormId: 0x2866 {01 86 66 28 2C 1A} 0x536DA Gray Out If {19 82} 0x536DC QuestionId: 0xDA2 equals value 0x1 {12 06 A2 0D 01 00} 0x536E2 One Of: SATA Mode Selection, VarStoreInfo (VarOffset/VarName): 0xB74, VarStore: 0x1, QuestionId: 0xD74, Size: 1, Min: 0x0, Max 0x1, Step: 0x0 {05 91 EB 0E EC 0E 74 0D 01 00 74 0B 10 10 00 01 00} 0x536F3 Default: DefaultId: 0x0, Value (8 bit): 0x1 {5B 06 00 00 00 01} 0x536F9 One Of Option: AHCI, Value (8 bit): 0x0 (default MFG) {09 07 ED 0E 20 00 00} 0x53700 One Of Option: RAID, Value (8 bit): 0x1 {09 07 EE 0E 00 00 01} 0x53707 End One Of {29 02} G703GX AMIBCP (Setup - Advanced - SATA Configuration) - Can choose both settings but not in the G703VI bios :

Hi to everyone new member here. I need to reinstall fully my notebook and the only setting for the SATA configuration is "Intel RST Premium". The notebook is sold with RAID0 config but even with one SSD, I can not select AHCI. I bought 2 retail Samsung SSD to be able to use Samsung software. I can boot, format and install windows 10 with a single SSD but impossible to install Samsung Drivers or update firmware with Samsung Magician. If someone can help will be great. I know already how to flash with FPTW. Backup done with FPTW for ME 11. Thanx in advance. Greetings. Bios backup with FPTW from Windows 10 Update Version 317 : G703VI-317.rar PS : Sorry my mistake this post can be moved to Asus Gaming Notebook forum
